Why book hotels, your day trips, excursions and activities on our website?

Our business is all about hiring cars and transferring visitors to the island from one place to another.

As the most popular car rental business in Zanzibar, our customers ask us for a lot more. They depend on us to recommend hotels, to advise on the most worthwhile tours and activities on our island, and to even book local and regional flight tickets for them. And these things we have always done because we know Zanzibar like the back of our hands: what is good, what is better, and what is the best.

We decided to make it easier and quicker for our customers to find the accommodation they desire, at prices suitable to their pockets, as well as those tours and activities which add to the fun and flavour of any holiday or business visit. So we teamed up with Tripindigo, our region’s best online travel agent http://www.tripindigo.com and with their help are able to assist you.

You can find here on our website several carefully selected hotels, resorts and guesthouses whose owners or managers we know personally, and who are our friends. Also, a selection of the preferred tours and activities operated by the best in the whole of Zanzibar.

Recommended. Known personally to us.

Right prices. It’s our reputation.

Flights

Finding the flight on and off the island, and indeed within Tanzania and the region, is not easy when you don’t know all the airlines, their prices and schedules. Our customers have told us how difficult this can be.
